OFF: Normally, set to this position. The switch is preset to this position when the unit is
shipped.
LPF: Set to this position when you want to turn on the LPF (Low-Pass Filter) switch (the
Low-Pass Filter transmits frequencies lower than the cutoff frequency).
HPF: Set to this position when you want to turn on the HPF (High-Pass Filter) switch (the
High-Pass Filter transmits frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency).
CROSSOVER frequency controller
Tur ning this adjusts the cutoff frequency within the range of 50 Hz to 400 Hz. Adjust the level
while listening to the sound. This control is preset to 50 Hz when the unit is shipped.
